luv2plumb 315 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) Hi all I had my sleeve done on 2/12/14 and as of today (7/16/14) I'm down 82 LBS, what a life changing thing to do FOR yourself ! I do sometimes get sad that I can't eat as much as I want to ( my eyes are bigger then my stomach) but this is the way it should be,I went from a size 42 jeans to 32 and a s/m shirt now love to shop for new jeans and tee shirts I started out at 271LBS, and now I'm at 189LBS,and I'm 5'6" tall, when at work For lunch I will have a pice of baked chicken that I get from the already prepared self serve section in one of the supper markets I'm a h.v.a.c / plumber so I'm always on the go and it works out good for me plus the money I save is unreal (lol) I do jog NOW I never did before but I'm up to like 3 miles like 3-4 times a week I do this fitness trail in one of the parks by where I live "holmdel park" this trail had 32 work out stations along the way, to work out your whole body , and it makes me feel great! Ok thanks for the platform to tell my wonderful time I'm having with my weight loss i would answer any questions to the best of my ability if you wanted to chat ? Thanks Johnny Edited July 17, 2014 by luv2plumb 3 ProudGrammy, erieb2healthy_2014 and missbrown30 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greensleeve 457 Posted July 17, 2014 That's 75 pounds since the pre op diet. Here's what I do. Aim for 65 grams Protein every day, which I hit 95% of the time. Drink at least 62 ounces fluids a day. Eat Protein first Eat low fat, no white sugar, low carb food. I have good fat like olive oil and nuts. I log everything I eat in My Fitness Pal every single day. I have 1000 calories as my limit but it's usually around 700. Hope that helps. 1 luv2plumb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
